Election Day 2012

So I got the number wrong. Big deal. The important thing is that who you vote for might not even go towards the presidential vote - even if your state is one of the all-but-two that use a winner-takes all, the other candidate might get a vote or two.

Besides, how is it pwned? I readily admitted that I didn't know. I said that I am likely wrong, and guess what? I was wrong! PWN'D wil be if I told you all that I know for certain, which I did't.

I do believe that's a PWN . And lol, the idea that faithless electors could change the election is not likely at all. There are many other scenarios that could affect the election that much more likely. Here's four that NBC News came up with. A great read.

I believe #2 will happen

If we're speaking about what can happen at worst case scenario, here is something really funny I heard that can happen:

Obama and Romney get too close to call. So the House is used to determine the president. The House can't reach an agreement, so the current vice-president takes over.

Biden '12 anyone?

Once again you are wrong
In the event of a 269-269 elector college tie, it's true that the House of Representatives determines the President, by giving each state one vote (no electors). But the Senate picks the Vice President. If it's a tie (50-50), the leader of the Senate breaks the tie. Quick government question: Who is the President of the Senate?

Spoiler: show

The Vice President
Did you get it right?

[DGFone]

Nope, I am not wrong, and here is why:

I only said what I heard on the radio. What you're telling me is that the radio was wrong. So hah! This is the great thing about quoting - even if the quote is wrong, you are not.

Paul Ryan said: Rape is just another method of conception.

See that is one of the reasons I don't like them. Some are completely nuts. Someone with thoughts like that, vice president? I find these all women should be baby factories pro-life remarks highly disturbing. It's a disgrace, he's insulting half of the human race right there...

Told you you read the tabloids. Paul Ryan further went on to elaborate what he meant, and this is what he said: He doesn't support rape, and knows its evil, but if a child is created because of it, it's God's will, and therefore he is against aborting it.

I am against it, and I know that you are against it, but that is no way the same way as "I support rape because it creates more people."

[DGFone]

Do remember that some people firmly believe that what you consider morally wrong, they believe as the right thing. Really, start opening your mind that not everyone are either like you, or evil. You can't tell a society that views murder as an honorable activity that murder is wrong. You can try and change their ways, but just telling them that they're wrong makes you no better than them, if not worse for forcing your views on another society.

So once again: You view abortion as wrong. Others don't. And in the end, people vote for the reps that agree with them.

And? That’s his personal opinion. The Vice President’s viewpoints do not matter and they never have. It’s why civil unions didn’t improve during the Bush administration despite the fact that Dick Cheney was for them.

I wish people would stop thinking women are being suppressed by the Republicans with this "War on Women" rhetoric. It was Ronald Reagan who appointed a female Supreme Court justice. Bush attempted to do the same, but the Democrats in the Senate rejected her (lol). A lot of people make fun of Romney for his “Binder Full of Women”, but at least he’s trying to add females. Do you know who’s not laughing? The women who got a job cause of those binders.

Also, don’t say it’s definitely Obama. It’s too close to call

No, I am not defending them, because I agree with you that they are in the wrong. But you have to remember that for them, they are in the right, and who knows, you might save getting yourself and ulcer by a few years if you accept that fact.

[DGFone]

It's not that you fight them, but how. You have to calmly and reasonably explain to people how what they think is actually wrong, and educate them in a way that will get them to change their minds on their own.

Admitting that you will readily name-call religious idiots is not that way, just saying...
